The Best Small Organizing Project to Tackle, Based on Your Zodiac Sign

When you create systems that flow with your routine and the items encompassing it, life becomes easier to manage and can lead to a happier and clearer mind. Now, while that all sounds great, we also know that deciding where to start can be the biggest struggle, especially if you are new to organizing. Understanding your motivations is step one. Whether you are a fan of astrology or just dabble, looking at your star sign can tell you a lot about yourself and how to approach organizing.

From Aries to Pisces, read on for the best small project to tackle based on your zodiac sign. Plus, a list of celebrities born under your same star!

ARIES: CREATE A CLEANING CADDY

You are known for diving headfirst into a task without getting caught up in all the details. You don't plan a whole day for cleaning; you just conquer the clutter when the time feels right. That's why, instead of sifting through a cabinet for cleaning supplies, you are much better off stocking a caddy ahead of time and saving yourself the extra steps.

Fellow Aries: Reese Witherspoon (March 22), America Ferrera (April 18), Kourtney Kardashian (April 18).

TAURUS: STYLE UP YOUR SHOWER

As a Taurus, comfort and luxury are non-negotiables. That's why it's time to treat yourself to the shower experience you deserve with storage that goes the extra mile. By adhering these turntables to the corner wall, all your favorite products are just a spin away!

Fellow Tauruses: Gigi Hadid (April 23), Adele (May 5), Sabrina Carpenter (May 11).

GEMINI: DECLUTTER YOUR DEVICES

Nothing makes you happier than meeting new people, getting their life stories, and apparently, all their contact information. Don't get us wrong—there's no such thing as too many friends, but do you really need Laura from Terminal B's phone number and email address saved and her "must-try" soup recipe in your Notes app?! It's been two years. You both meant to reach out but didn't—which is totally fine! But that's why it's time to clean up your contact list, dear Gemini. And your camera roll and apps while you're at it. Head here for our complete guide to decluttering your devices in fifteen minutes or less. It will feel great to start fresh. Enjoy!

Fellow Geminis: Riley Keough (May 29), Venus Williams (June 17), Nicole Kidman (June 20).

CANCER: GIVE A WARM(ER) WELCOME

As a nurturer by nature, you have a house that feels like home to everybody. Cozy blankets, an easy WiFi password, an open door policy to your pantry—it's a vibe. To provide an even warmer welcome, set up a station in your entryway with bins, hooks, and a flat surface where guests can put their things so they don't have to awkwardly hold their purses the whole time.

Fellow Cancers: Mindy Kaling (June 24), Ariana Grande (June 26), Khloe Kardashian (June 27).

LEO: PROTECT YOUR PRECIOUS PIECES

It's giving Main Character Energy. And by it's, we mean you. With your innate confidence and trendsetting style, you never shy away from a statement piece, which, for Joanna (a Leo), is a new headband every day. To keep your collection shining as bright as you do, store your jewelry and sunglasses in clear drawers with a linen interior and headbands on this headband organizer so each piece is protected and at your fingertips.

Fellow Leos: Meghan Markle (August 4), Hoda Kotb (August 9), Viola Davis (August 11), Joanna Teplin (August 20).

VIRGO: LOOSEN YOUR LABELING SYSTEM

You aren't a control freak; you are detail-oriented. As the most innately organized of the signs, nothing comes between you and your labeling system. But if you find that your family or housemates are still struggling to find things or put them back where they belong, chances are your categories are too granular. To fix this, take a more straightforward approach to your systems with general groupings that provide more flexibility and accommodate the occasional outlier.

Fellow Virgos: Shania Twain (August 28), Beyoncé (September 4), Taraji P. Henson (September 11).

SHOP THE LABELS

LIBRA: KEEP CALM AND CANISTER ON

As a sign that thrives in balance with a penchant for aesthetics, you value the best of both worlds. So, instead of restyling your bookshelf with decorative objects for the millionth time, we suggest shifting your artistic abilities to the pantry. Something as simple as emptying your bulk foods into clear canisters can create a display that brings functionality to your day.

Fellow Libras: Serena Williams (September 26), Gwyneth Paltrow (September 27), Kim Kardashian (October 21).

SHOP THE PROJECT

SCORPIO: CONCEAL IN STYLE

As the sign who prefers to leave a bit to the imagination, you take your clear bins in small doses, especially when storing items you deem special. Thankfully, keeping things contained and concealed without sacrificing style and accessibility is possible, and it's as easy as implementing these solutions into your current system.

Fellow Scorpios: Gabrielle Union (October 29), Kris Jenner (November 5), Anne Hathaway (November 12).

SAGITTARIUS: TACKLE YOUR TRAVEL TOILETRIES

When life gives you extra toiletries at a hotel, you make sure to ask for a few more just in case—which happens often, considering you are the sign that lives for traveling. Instead of continuing to stockpile mini versions of things you'll never use, pare down, pick your favorites, and prep a pre-packed toiletry bag to save time before your next trip. Store the backstock toiletries in a designated bin and swap them out when needed. Bon voyage!

Fellow Sagittarius: Miley Cyrus (November 23), Zoë Kravitz (December 1), Taylor Swift (December 13).

CAPRICORN: FRESHEN UP YOUR FILING SYSTEM

Highly disciplined and goal-driven, setting up systems and sticking to a schedule comes second nature to you. So, if you are looking for another task to tackle, how about refreshing your filing system with a pop of rainbow color? Grab the clear File Box from our Walmart collection, pour yourself a glass of champagne, and there you have it: The perfect Saturday night at home.

Fellow Capricorns: Kate Middleton (January 9), Michelle Obama (January 17), Dolly Parton (January 19).

AQUARIUS: DO MORE WITH CABINET DOORS

Always an innovator, you love thinking outside the box. Or in this case, the bin. So, have you ever thought about using a cabinet door as storage? No more cramming more things into the stackable storage under your bathroom sink. Just attach a hanging organizer over any cabinet door to instantly create more space. You'll love the one in our Walmart collection because it can be customized with removable and adjustable bins and hooks. Just be warned: You'll have one on every cabinet door before you know it.

Fellow Aquariuses: Oprah Winfrey (January 29), Kerry Washington (January 31), Clea Shearer (February 1), Laura Dern (February 10).

PISCES: GET IN THE (FRIDGE) ZONE

Known for having the biggest imagination, the last thing you are focused on is those leftovers you brought home a few nights ago. In order to keep your fridge as fresh as your ideas, you need to be able to see everything, which is where clear storage lends a helping hand. By dividing your fridge into zones and containing items by category with a label, you'll cut down on food waste without even trying.

Fellow Pisces: Rihanna (February 20), Drew Barrymore (February 22), Simone Biles (March 14).
